Things to watch (5)
From the version posted Oct 14, 2026.
- Serious: SDVOSB set-aside: only service-disabled veteran-owned small businesses can bid. Firms that do not hold SDVOSB status cannot compete for this award.
- Serious: Bid guarantee, payment bond and performance bond required. You need a surety (bonding company) able to issue a bid guarantee of at least 20% of your price, plus payment and performance bonds at 100% of the bid price, which can be hard for a small firm to get.
- Worth checking: Asbestos-containing materials and lead testing. The contractor must test for lead or asbestos before any demolition and remove and dispose of hazardous materials, which adds cost, specialist work and risk.

- Worth checking: Work in an occupied hospital with after-hours demolition. Parts of the building stay in use, pre-construction risk assessment (PCRA), infection control risk assessment (ICRA) and interim life safety measures (ISLM) are required, and demolition must be done after hours or on weekends.
- Minor: Authorized representative on site at all times. A representative with authority to take VA instructions and direct workers and subcontractors must be on site throughout construction.
